I bought the first one when it came out and didn't buy the next ones. I actually liked the comics it contained, but the overall tone is more intellectual and less countercultural than the original (of which i also have a few issues).

I think the difference might boil down to being at the cutting edge of an emerging culture compared to being comfortable in an established culture four decades later.
